Ovarian Cancer patient Hair loss question…
My first chemo round was two weeks ago, next one in one week. It’s the carbo/taxol/avastin combo. I’ve noticed in the last two or three days my scalp has been more tender and today it’s really tender all over. How long after it hits this stage have people noticed their hair really starting to fall out? I’m trying to prepare myself the best I can.

I got six chemo's each 3 weeks a whole day. After two treatments my hair fell out. Feeling hair pain (like you had your hear to tight into a tail or knot) is the start of it. Good luck with your treatment.
